only makes 1.5M more which is immaterial in the rising cap environment.

Arghhh flashbacks. If i had a nickel for every time I heard that during the Benning era I'd be crushed under 1160 tons of nickels.

[sandwichbird2023]

Novak would maybe be an interesting buy-low candidate.

McCann is pretty much a winger now.

I don't know if Zegras is a Tocchet type player.

Zacha is a bit underwhelming, he's probably a 3C ideally.

Ryan Donato? 28 years old pending UFA, Hawks might be looking to trade him if they can't extend him? Normally not a huge point scorer, but has been on a very lengthy hot streak now, could be a late bloomer?

Not exactly a Tocchet type player, but does have offensive skills.

To honour Jet Black Jim, the canucks will do f*** all in a sellers market. We've seen this horror movie before.

 

[sting101]

This would be my deadline and it leaves about 800-900k for next year with all in blue rostered

Restocked on little blue pills?

 

[Nuckles]

Surprised there hasn't been more action yet

It sounds like not a lot of teams are selling*, so there might just be bidding wars over the limited supply. Also some more depth guys might get traded once more of the top pieces are gone.

*meaningful pieces for picks/prospects

 

[Jyrki21]

Cribbed from the Discord, I can't confirm that this is where the Boeser poster was but I think this person walks by regularly.

View attachment 987109

Google Street View only gives me May 2022... Boeser is there, but in the spot where Hughes is now. So we can confirm that Bo's poster has been taken down.

Fun fact, I actually had that trade #1 in my 1st draft but switched to Naslund later.

Now even as (I presume) the world's biggest Jyrki Lumme fan, I'm surprised to see you have that one above the 1994 deadline deal, or even Mogilny-Morrison, just for notoriety alone. I don't necessarily disagree, just Lumme took a few years to truly be appreciated, whereas the others are often cited as the more-or-less direct stepping stone to something big.

they will not trade Hronek

 

[Bobby9]

Jack Hughes out long term.

Send Chytil, 1st and Willander for Luke.

McCann is pretty much a winger now.

I don't know if Zegras is a Tocchet type player.

Zacha is a bit underwhelming, he's probably a 3C ideally.

Maybe a guy like Hendrix Lapierre if Washington is looking to add for a playoff run? Still young, good pedigree with some NHL experience but hasn't really broke through with the Caps yet...decent numbers in the AHL though.

 

[rypper]

In 2012 Kings captain Dustin Brown was on the trade block. He responded by scoring a hat trick and they decided not to trade him. That summer they won their first cup.

That is the kind of performance we need to see from Boeser and also EP. Show us you care and that you want to play for this team.

Dueling hat tricks. I like it.

Jack Hughes out long term.

Who's playing forward for this team?

Rick says EP is back

 

[Nona Di Giuseppe]

How?
Aquilini is like Jerry Jones

He can’t help himself, and he is back meddling

based on?

 

[Blue and Green]

* Boeser 7.25 x 6
* Hronek for Cozens 2nd (Because Sabres will not want futures)
* Suter for 3rd*
* 1st 3rd* Soucy for Pulock

I wouldn't trade Suter if a 3rd was all that we could get.

 

[sting101]

they will not trade Hronek

Gotta give to get. 23 yr old RC that can drive play is more important for us that Hronek who we could make a trade to replace as i outlined. And we have Willander.

Islanders free up money to re sign Dobson, have Mayfied @RD who can fill like Myers does into a top4 spot and then they still have Romanov Pelech Soucy on LD who they could turn into futures at next years deadline. Gives them more flexibility to retool and a lot of assets. One of Pelech or Pulock probably moves if they keep Dobson which is likely

I wouldn't trade Suter if a 3rd was all that we could get.

Why? He's a depth player. I doubt we get more and in my scenario Cozens was coming here and we use that 3rd for Pulock. Not really an ideal spot for him if that's the case

[Timmer44]

Or offersheet him this summer.

 

[I am toxic]

Or Rutherford pushed back and now Aquilini allows hockey ops to do hockey ops.

It's a bird!

It's a plane!

It's Superman!

No, no

it's just a flying pig

 

[Jerry the great]

back to back shoulder surgeries for Jack is a disaster for the Devils. Wonder if he's going to have the same procedure as Norris.

I know everyone loves to speculate about the Devils collecting all the Hughes, but if I were them I’d be worried about Jack’s longevity.

Besides his ability to make it through every regular season—that shoulder is going to become a target in every playoff series.

it was literally reported that Hronek was untouchable today. Also this Willander shit has to stop. He is not ready to step in for Hronek.

 

[Nona Di Giuseppe]

Already explained in this thread

Fiction. gotcha. I mean there’s literally nothing to suggest he’s meddling now other than previously being involved, when the team was objectively messed with big contracts messed and an owner should be involved.

Honestly f*** Tocchet. Hope he gets fired. Tired of Tocchet making roster decisions and having this team play such boring garbage hockey.

 

[sting101]

Had Pulock for Hronek with Willander coming but whatever were just living in make believe so whatever happens happens
